MoviePass brings the convenience of Netflix to your local movie theaters: After paying a monthly fee, you can see as many movies in the theater as you want.

The price of MoviePass varies depending on where you live, but starts at $29.99 a month. When you sign up, you get an app for your smartphone and a membership card that works like a debit card. When you want to see a movie, just check in at the theater on your phone, then swipe your membership card like any other debit card—it'll work at any theater that takes Discover cards, and you can see up to one movie a day. If you're a particularly big movie buff, that means you could save quite a bit of money (though it doesn't work for 3D or IMAX movies).

Unfortunately, there are a few caveats: MoviePass is an annual membership, meaning you sign up for an entire year and are billed monthly. If you cancel more than 30 days after you've started your membership, you're charged a $20 termination fee, plus you'll have to pay for any tickets you used up until that point if they cost more than what you've paid for MoviePass. Be sure to read the FAQ and terms before you sign up to make sure the service is right for you. It boils down to this: if you know you see enough movies to make up the cost, it's a fantastic service, but if you aren't sure, don't sign up before you're ready or you might end up paying too much.

MoviePass is currently in invite-only beta, but we got our hands on 2,000 invites for Lifehacker readers. You don't need to enter a code or anything, just hit the link below to bypass the invite process and sign up for your membership.
